Struct std::rand::distributions::normal::StandardNormal
[−]
[src]
pub struct StandardNormal(pub f64);
Unstable (
rand
): use rand
from crates.io
A wrapper around an f64
to generate N(0, 1) random numbers
(a.k.a. a standard normal, or Gaussian).
See Normal
for the general normal distribution. That this has to
be unwrapped before use as an f64
(using either *
or
mem::transmute
is safe).
Implemented via the ZIGNOR variant[1] of the Ziggurat method.
